The probability distribution of extreme precipitation
Doklady Earth Sciences, 2017On the basis of the negative binomial distribution of the duration of wet periods calculated per day, an asymptotic model is proposed for distributing the maximum daily rainfall volume during the wet period, having the form of a mixture of Frechet distributions and coinciding with the distribution of the positive degree of a random variable having the ...

Globally estimated precipitation extremes
2020<p>Understanding the magnitude and frequency of extreme precipitation events is a core component of translating climate observations to planning and engineering design. This research aims to capture extreme precipitation return levels at the global scale. A benchmark of the current climate is created using the global Multi-Source

Patterns of Extreme Precipitation in Santos
2018Analysis of extreme precipitation events in different time scales over Santos is presented using the rain gauge network for the period 1980–2015. Located in the humid tropics, the area presents high annual total rainfall, particularly concentrated in spring and summer.

Study of Precipitation Extremes in Cyprus
2016The influence of climate change on the precipitation extremes is examined using results from theory, modeling and observations. Observations and simulations with climate models show that a warming climate typically results in an intensification of precipitation extremes.

Extreme Precipitation in the Northern Hemisphere
1994Atmospheric precipitation is an important natural factor determining the life conditions on the Earth. By the same time, heavy precipitation can cause a huge material damage leading to such menacing natural events as floods, landslides, mud flows, avalanches, water erosion, etc… These dangerous natural disasters can be of various duration - from a ...
